How do you deal with the stress and anxiety from unnecessarily rude and aggressive judges? There is one in the northern district who has a hair trigger temper and will find any reason to lash out if he doesn’t like the party in front of him. I have a small issue in front of him this week and have had anxiety about it all day.

What is the benefit of working at the Cook County State's Attorneys Office other than the rapid trial experience one gains? I was a non traditional student - I do have a job lined up in private practice. Im not particularly fond of the practice area but its decent paying for entry level. I attended a networking event and met so many State's attorneys who seemed to enjoy the work bc of the experience they were gaining.

Sort of feel its a job more geared to folks who never worked in law before.

Anyone have insights into Gould & Ratner? Saw some job postings on LinkedIn that looked interesting but don't know much about the firm.

I’m a business/commercial lawyer with 8 years experience looking to relocate to Chicago from NYC area, while also trying to make the jump to in-house after only ever working at a boutique firm. It’s been 5 months and I haven’t had any luck applying to job postings on the usual sites (no calls, no interviews, nothing). I can’t tell if this is due to covid, the market, the fact that I don’t have any in-house experience, the fact that I live out of state, or something else entirely. Any insights??
